In a poignant scene from the Rooftop Productions (天台製作) contemporary theatre piece 'Not The Maids' (《不是女僕》), actor Isabella Leung is captured in the foreground wearing a vibrant red head covering, her face upturned with an expression of intense longing and vulnerability. Behind her, bathed in cool, dramatic blue stage lighting, another performer stands with arms outstretched in a solemn, ritualistic pose, while a third figure holding an object stands further in the background. The minimalist staging highlights the emotional weight of the performance. A performer captures the central theme of the play with the line: "Why must foreign domestic workers live in the homes of their employers?"
